We won.

We won the house cup.

It's a small victory but it's ours.

We won fair and square.

We won through hard work.

We won through dedication.

We won through talent.

We won the house cup.

No one can tell me we don't deserve it.

Slytherin won the house cup!

Maybe we are not cursed.

Maybe Dumbledore will let us have this small victory.

Maybe in this moment who we are destined to be wont matter.

Because we won the house cup!


But then again we couldn't win.

I forgot who we were.

I forgot that we are the villains and they are the heroes... and heroes always win.

Good must triumph over bad.

Otherwise, how would we know how the rest of life will go.

Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ronald Weasley and Neville Longbottom are the heroes tonight.

Slytherin was merely the foreboding evil that they overcame.

A fleeting victory was stolen in the last moments.

We do not win, because we are Slytherine.

Who are we?

Who am I?

I am cunning.

I am thoughtful.

I am dutiful.

I am pure.

I am stuck.

I am evil.

Does who I am not matter?

Who I am does not matter!

Why does who I am not matter?

Why does who we are not matter?

Why?

Is our victory really so useless that we can not have what we rightly deserve?

In the end, I am never going to win.

In the end, I must correct myself here.

We are never going to win.

After all, we are not individuals we are a group.

Gryffindors are Potter, Granger, Longbottom, and Weasley.

Slytherins are Malfoy if we are lucky, no one if we are not.

Becuase we are Slytherin and if we won who would be left to stew in the injustice of the world and the undeniable conclusion of our path.

Who would be the villain of the story, left in defeat to provide the hero with a vanquished enemy to celebrate?

I want to win.

It doesn't matter what I want.

Becuase I don't live in the light.
